AWARDS: Seaside Residences - seafront living in the east

The living rooms and bedrooms that face the sea boast full-height windows, complementing the balconies that open up to vast sea views. Each pair of towers is connected by a sky terrace, which is a community space topped by lush gardens, accessible to all residents and offering views of the city and the...
